Eddies Stream, and Convergence Zones in Turbulent Flows

J. C. R. Hunt
TL;DR: In this article, a set of objective criteria were found which describe regions in which the streamlines circulate, converge, or diverge, and form high streams of high velocity flow.

A new modelling of cavitating flows : a numerical study of unsteady cavitation on a hydrofoil section

TL;DR: In this paper, a bubble two-phase flow (BTF) model is proposed to explain the interaction between viscous effects including vortices and cavitation bubbles, which treats the inside and outside of a cavity as one continuum by regarding the cavity as a compressible viscous fluid whose density changes greatly.
